Fifty thousand bucks is a lot of money for a motorcycle. Kramer, a boutique maker of race bikes, has tried to cram in as much as it can on two wheels – race-ready components, advanced electronics, and a titanium and carbon-fiber body.

One of the most magnificent and terrifying steeds in motorcycledom gets its second major overhaul for 2024. The new KTM 1390 Super Duke R gets a bigger motor, a bigger tank, semi-active suspension and a savagely alien new headlight design.

Boutique motorcycle company Langen has unveiled a stablemate to its delectable, super-lightweight 2-Stroke. The 2025 Lightspeed rocks a hard-punching 1190cc V-twin, and hits the one horsepower per kilogram mark – at least, til you sit on it.

Ducati has a new motorbike, and it's celebrating this fact with a series of photos and videos so flagrantly ribald and saucy they'd be pixelated out in Japan. I mean, look at them. In fact, forget the bike, can I buy some of this guy's talent?

Norton has made good on its threat to turn its slinky V4SV superbike into a cafe racer – without neutering its rorty 1200cc V4 engine. The new V4CR carries an absolutely brutal price tag, but a bike this pretty might just get away with it.

Praga stunned us with its futuristic, ultra-lightweight Bohema supercar last year, but this Czech company has taken a retro angle on its first streetbike in nearly a century. The ZS 800 combines a gorgeous classic look with some nice modern thinking.

Suzuki has hit EICMA with a brand-new 776 cc parallel twin motor, aiming to take on the middleweight market where a lot of the fun's at these days. The first streetbike to use it is the new GSX-8S, but on the spec sheet, it looks a bit undercooked.

The fourth gen of Triumph’s middleweight streetfighter has received a facelift, upgraded electronics, a small power boost, sharper geometry, and sees the addition of a racier Moto2 limited edition to the 2023 standard duet of Street Triple 765 R and RS.

Ten years after the naked sportbike CB600F Hornet went out of production, Honda is plotting its return with claims of a class-leading power-to-weight ratio from its brand new 755-cc inline twin. The motor will also power the revival of the Transalp.

Enhanced with Öhlins suspensions, high-end Brembo Stylema brakes, upgraded electronics, dedicated color scheme, and some other special bits and pieces, the 2023 Ducati Monster SP handles the sportier side of the iconic Monster family.

The first 2023 motorcycle to break cover in Ducati’s World Première 2023 online series is a collectible variant of the Streetfighter V4, modeled after the similarly exclusive Lamborghini Huracán STO supercar.

First introduced at the 2021 EICMA show, the new Hornet concept advances towards production form, as suggested by new design concept sketches stemming from Honda’s European R&D center, but the kind of motor it’ll use is still shrouded in mystery.
